nlgn's review against another edition
5.0
A brilliant approach to writing history. The author includes herself without intruding. Her interview subjects are beautifully portrayed. The complexities and ambiguity of the topic are conveyed clearly, but without oversimplifying. No conclusive truth is uncovered but, far from being unsatisfying, this highlights the elusiveness of truth in a realm of partial observation, subjective memory and political misinformation.
